A man pays 40 times the annual rent to purchase a building. The rate % per annum he derives from his investment is

2.50%

3.33%

4.00%

6.67%

✅ Correct Option: 1

Let the annual rent be $R$

Purchase price = $40R$

Rate of return = $\frac{\text{Annual Return}}{\text{Investment}} × 100\%$

$= \frac{R}{40R} × 100\%$

$= \frac{1}{40} × 100\%$

$= 2.50\%$

Therefore, the rate of return is 2.50% per annum.
